Transnistria Mosque Carpet
Although Transnistria is officially recognized as part of the Republic of Moldova, it is considered a de facto independent state. The number of mosques in Transnistria is very limited, and they are usually in Soviet-era buildings. It is thought that most of the mosque carpets in Transnistria were imported not from the Islamic world but from former Soviet countries. However, there has been an increase in the number of Islamic buildings in the country in recent years, which has led to the need for more mosque carpets. Mosque carpets in Transnistria are generally plain and without patterns. Colors are usually kept in neutral tones and patterns are minimalistic. However, some carpets may contain traditional Central Asian and Caucasian motifs.
